Tales for Males

“Reddy Teddy’s Rowdy Roundup” TFM-100. Crazy titles here like “When the Iron in Your Blood Turns to Lead in Your Pencil”! Cool illustration with that leopard skin bikini bottom and tail! Unlikely you’ll ever see this record again and I’m guessing there never was a TFM-101.

Pimpin’ with Prima

img_0896.JPG

Louis Prima’s “Just a Gigolo” on his own Prima One label.     Of course with Sam Butera and the Witnesses.   This one’s from the early Seventies I’m sure.   Here’s a great clip of the song with Louis, his wife Keely Smith and the boys back in the late Fifties.
